Suggest Remedy For Lump Under Knee
I fell over and landed on my knee on a concrete floor, It hurts a little to bend my leg, I have a little lump under my knee. I cannot kneel down otherwise it really hurts by pressure being on it. The bruise itself feels tight, is that normal? Any idea what I ve done?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of fall on the knee and development of a lump under the knee. This may get resolved if it is a hematoma.
But since you have also difficulty in bending the knee, I would advise you to consult an Orthopedic Surgeon to rule out any internal injury like cartilage rupture or ligament tear and have an MRI for further evaluation and treatment accordingly.
